Resumen
The overall objective of Re-Livestock is to evaluate and mobilize the adoption of innovative
practices applied cross-scale (animal, herd, farm, sector and region) to reduce GHG emissions from
livestock farming systems and increase their capacity to dealing with potential climate change
impacts. To reach our aim, Re-Livestock have brought together the excellence scientific expertise
in Europe and Australia and across disciplines, including co-innovation, animal feeding, breeding,
welfare, farm management, environmental and socio-economic assessment and policy analysis, to
develop novel and scientifically supported integrated approaches specific for different dairy, beef
and pig systems and geographic regions in the context of climate change. Strong collaboration with
industry stakeholders to identify the innovations and to co-design the validation will ensure
relevance and maximise the adoption of best practices. National groups of farmers (case studies)
and 'stakeholder forums' together with a 'European multi-actor platform' will allow for an engaged
co-design of transition pathways whilst 'learning from innovation networks' will allow for the
testing and sharing of latest innovative solutions. A 'community
of practice' will extend the multi-actor approach to a broad range of stakeholders.
